That’s more or less how it should be, but with whole grains instead of the ultra-processed stuff. Your diet should be something like:
50-60% carbs (ideally complex carbs), with lots of fiber
20-30% protein
20-25% fat
Each group has sub-categories, but generally speaking, you should bulk up on grains (rice, whole wheat, corn, etc), get lots of great fruits and veggies, enough protein, and fill in the rest as you like.
From a general population health perspective, the pyramid was a pretty good system. It was basically an attempt to simplify the Mediterranean pattern. I like the Power Plate better though.
We also had the food pyramid, which said we should eat tons and tons of bread and grain.

I was raised on the food shape, so my diet shunned fancy foods and consisted mostly of aspic and curried cheese
Ah yes, cigarettes and milk. My favorite food group.
Honest representation of the health effects of milk.
I’d have a cigarette for breakfast followed by a bowl of heavy cream. Then I’d go work one half-hour, two half-hour…
